Dance to me seems to cover a huge portion of the Electronic genre. I think trance falls under there, in which trance is extremely repetitive beyond belief.

Pretty much what pureblood said, Dance is a broader genre including house, trance etc.

"[Trance is]A form of electronic music that has spiralled out from other forms such as techno and house. Essentially, trance combines a powerful "4-to-the-floor" ; (or occasionally breakbeat) drumtrack with a strong melodic hookline."

also alot of trance drags,and has piano to it.

mostly trance gets you into a "trance" usually no singing and repetitive patters to keep you in a "trance"

dance is more... singing constant changes even if just slightly more of what you would see at a club

at least as far as i kno >.<

zemix · 05-26-2007, 09:32 PM

o trance? o.O;; scary.. lol

Here's an example of Dance:

I don't have the guts to download any trance music, I'm keeping my computer free of that crap. Just look in Newgrounds for trance samples.

g4z33b0 · 05-26-2007, 09:37 PM

This is trance - http://youtube.com/watch?v=Pc3yFlYlhCQ

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Trance is some of the greatest music ever made. Trance is far from "crap". It is higher quality dance music.

zemix · 05-26-2007, 09:41 PM

oo i see.. im thinking trance is more constant?? or that jus happens to be it is in those 2 songs.. o.O

purebloodtexan · 05-26-2007, 09:55 PM

It's repetitive and boring, atleast from the trance I've heard. I find other genres of electronic a lot more interesting. The songs I want are always changing in one form or another as they progress.

g4z33b0 · 05-26-2007, 10:03 PM

You don't like this song? http://youtube.com/watch?v=xDugz-TaO...elated&search=

Trance tends to be a slower, smoother sounding music also. It typically is not as fast paced as most "dance" music is. Trance also might have words in them but if it does, it will most likely be only a few words repeated in the background. Dance could include anything from a dj's remix of a mainstream song to a fast paced techno song completely made by them.

zemix · 05-26-2007, 10:38 PM

ohh well actually i like em both... u guys did the best explaining to me tho lol buh im not surprised for the FFR forums lol..

Verruckter · 05-26-2007, 10:49 PM

Trance also distiguished from techno from the mood of the music itself. Techno tends to be happy, while trance will have a "mystic" feeling (hard to explain with words).

Dance is like: DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh-DO-tsh.

and Trance is like: do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH-do-TSH.

Dance is not a genre of music.

Basically, dance is a generic term used to classify a large range of electronic music. It was created by corporate companies to sell records. Dance is anything that has a strong steady thumping bass beat that can easily be danced to. Trance has a strong steady thumping bass beat that can easily be danced to...therefore Trance could fall under the category dance.

Seriously. Check out that site. It's kind of ridiculous, but it gives you a good idea of all the subgenres of electronic music.
